Topic: Venus and the sky

Hello-

did anyone get to see Venus traversing across the sun yesterday eve? It was cloudy here until the sun was just about to go down behind the mts, we checked (with double sets of welding goggles and sun glasses- safety first!) but could not make out anything. Last month my husband and i were able to veiw the Solar eclipse on our anniversary! This past week the full moon has been spectacularly huge as it rises and sets. I had a pleasant surprise the other evening when i went outside to grill.... the full moon was rising just above our Lupine in that purple twilight magic hour... We must remember to look up! Have a great day.

Ha! It seems that all or most of the clouds were over our skies as usual. Oh well, we'll catch it again the next time it comes around.........in about 105 years or so! But this time Marion we'll be prepared!!!!

Thats the spirit Marion. The Chinese are well known for their long term plans, and we now have our plan for Venus sightings in a safe manner!

So thats a date then. 105 years from now we all meet up to take in this experience! You can bring the eye protection for us all Marion and I'll bring the refreshments! Tea, coffee, sandwiches and of course some cakes will be available for all! Hopefully it will be a tad warmer then than it is this week as we are still getting some light night frosts here. Hawaii sounds good for a meet!
